If you collect a judgement equal to or greater than the land value it compensates you for your loss. If the people responsible are punsihed for their crime civil or criminal they have not gained.

Government suceeds? You realize government is a collection of people with differant views and motivations that take money by force from its citizens and spends it in ways for which they are unaccountable, don't you? Has governemnt suceeded in education, welfare, poverty, war on drugs, postal service, health care? I am beginning to think you are punking me. Good job.


[/ QUOTE ]

You don't get it, do you? I don't want money, I want my land. There isn't a price that makes me happy, sometimes I just want to meditate under my god damn cherry tree, not buy a BMW and revel in the destruction of my planet. It's within my right to want that, and if it means forcing others to not rape the planet, so be it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Can you tell me who is raping your land and denying you the use of your land? Can you give an example of anyone this is happening to?

Go take your kid for a swim in Lake Charles La. I'm sure you'll enjoy the water and refreshing smells outside the plastics factories. Oh wait, you can't swim there because the local waterways are deemed too hazardous for humans due to toxicity levels. Yet nobody can prove which factory has done what over the years.

Is it your position that we should be free to crap on anything and everything we want so long as nobody owns it?

So people have the legitimate right to exercise control over things that they don't own?

If I think your car is polluting the air I breathe should I be able to stop you from driving it? How about all the plastic products you use? You are driving the demand for that pollution, should I be able to stop you from using plastic? Should I be able to stop you from consuming anything if I can show how all your consupmtion harms the environment in some way?

In the case of the polluted lake, laws were most likely violated and violaters should have been punished. The system isn't perfect. The governmental body with juristiction over that lake let you down.

I'm just observing that this seems to be the position of states. Whenever someone points out a wildly polluted area, more often than not it's not privately owned.
